Loch Ness monster is no monster but, probably, a huge catfish

Nessie, the Loch Ness monster, may not really be a monster but is, most likely, a large catfish – this is the opinion of an expert who has spent 24 years searching for Nessie. He is 52-year-old Steve Feltham and he gave up his home, his job and his girlfriend to move closer to the haunt of legendary character in the Scottish loch.
This has been reported in news.sky.com dated 16 July 2015.

He admitted that he cannot lay claim to have solved the mystery of Nessie but, from all the evidence available, he has concluded that it is most likely a Wels catfish. These can grow up to four meters (13ft) in length long and weigh over 400-Kg.
He has relied on modern equipment and gadgets and has claimed that sonar contact had picked up objects in the loch that were the size of an estate car. This, despite the fact that the biggest creatures known in the loch were salmon and seals that sometimes chase them.
Obviously, a huge catfish would be totally out of place in the loch. And, stories would be woven around sighting of such creatures once in a while.
